Nitrospira
Nitrospira are nitrite-oxidizing bacteria that are important in marine habitats. In aquariums, for example, if the ammonia/nitrite/nitrate cycle is thrown off, the ecosystems suffers and fish can get sick or die. Therefore, nitrite-oxidizing bacteria as well as the other bacteria in this system are important for healthy marine ecosystems. Nitrospira can live in marine or nonmarine habitats. It has been isolated from ocean water, freshwater, aquarium water, deltaic sediment, deep-sea sediments, soils, and an iron pipe of a heating system. Nitrospira is part of a nitrification process which is important in the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle.
